Whether you are just getting started, or are doing the Genealogy Do-Over, feel free to visit with Ol' Myrt here this coming Wednesday. We're going tto discuss employing genealogy software to organize summary findings of family relationships.
NO, it's not too late to join the study group. Just review previous sessions here at your leisure: http://bit.ly/MyrtsPrevious
Now, as for catching the 4 Feb 2015 session, you could watch it on this blog, but it would be better to go to DearMYRTLE's Genealogy Community on Google+, where members may VIEW and COMMENT before, during and after the study group broadcast by going to http://bit.ly/MyrtsNext . (Head over soon, so +Cousin Russ or Ol' Myrt here have time to accept your request to join the community.)

identifying what is known, deciding what to learn, selecting records to

parish) wiki entries.

WHERE
Post COMMENTS before, during and after each Study Group Hangout on Air here:
We are using Google+ Hangouts on Air for this study group, just as we
use for Mondays with Myrt. We open the "green room" 15 minutes early if
you'd like to test out your microphone and webcam. Consider JOINing the
panel when we "scramble" to mix up the conversation a bit.
HOW
For this Beginning Genealogy Study Group, it isn't necessary to JOIN
"the filmstrip panel" to participate. Some people are shy about
appearing there, especially when just starting out. However, do post
your comments or questions as mentioned above.
So turn up those computer speakers, and head on over to VIEW the live
sessions, post COMMENTS before, during and after each session here: http://bit.ly/MyrtsNext
